No interior lights sometimes when opening hatch?
Wondering if this is normal or not... I've noticed sometimes when I open the hatch after the car has been sitting in the garage overnight that none of the lights inside or on the hatch come on. Car acts like it's dead. If you open one of the other doors it starts working normally. Also I've seen it do this a couple times when opening the passenger door - no lights until I closed the door then they came on briefly and faded out. This is without me carrying the keyless go key on me - just popping into the garage to get something out of the car.

I believe you have the lights in the roof above your back mirror turned off, put it in the normal "center" position and it will work everytime you open any door.

I do keep the main lights switch in the middle spot... and most of the time the interior lights come on when I open any of the doors or hatch. It's just on occasion I've noted they don't come on. Bug or normal?

This happened to me, too, yesterday. Wasn't sure why because every other time it has come on automatically. I opened a side door and then they came on.
